Hi folks,
I would like to check if I have the extensive b-r prereqs to build a package,
but cygport immediately bombs out with one missing package at a time!
Sorry folks,
I was wrong about that!
It kind of looks that way when 'inherit ...' is at the top of the cygport.
It looks like inherit ... with most cygclasses calls check_prog_req ... for
certain required executables, and exits immediately.
The bypass to continue is to set or export __cygport_check_prog_req_nonfatal=1!
If we do that, then inherit complains but does not exit, and `cygport ... make`
lib/check_funcs.cygport: check_depends() checks b-r and warns about all missing
b-r packages as desired, which we can then install after killing the build.
Could we please make it check all and complain, and maybe just make that a
warning, and/or perhaps perform minor operations like *vars* first, or do I have
to revert to sourcing and echoing vars, as I did before *vars*? ;^>
